PSG midfielder Rabiot: I wanted to join Roma

PSG midfielder Adrien Rabiot admits he's held talks with AS Roma. The 19-year-old is out of contract at the end of the season.

"Everything had gone the right way and it was my choice, I thought of wearing the Roma jersey," he told Canal Football Club.

"To be honest, I don't know what went wrong to make the negotiations collapse."

He continued: "Roma are a great club, their project is enticing and they are in the Champions League.

"Now we'll have to wait until January and see what to do. I chose my mother as my agent, as she gives me good advice."
